There is a lift operating for step-free access from the ground floor (foyer/reception) to the lower ground floor (Ciné Lumière II). Unfortunately, the lift from the ground floor to the first floor (library, salons and Ciné Lumière) is currently out of order. Apologies for the inconvenience caused.

Ciné Lumière II is equipped with a wireless audio system that delivers both Hearing Impaired (HI), and Visually Impaired Narration (VI) on compatible films.
